7zip: how to extract to std output?

pipe it to another program such as

i think tee comes closest to what you want, it drops the 7z stuff and just gives you the content.

% 7z e -so dist\dlogpkg.jar META-INF/MANIFEST.MF | tee

On Windows, 7z x -so my_file.zip 2> NUL doesn't work, but redirection to a real file helps:

7z x -so my_file.zip 2> _garbage.txt

I was also trying to figure this out. This got me what I wanted:

7z x -so my_file.zip 2> /dev/null
